Big eyes: There are many cats breed with big eyes which make them look different from all the other species present on this earth. Having big eyes also give them those evil looks in the dark nights of the forest. Many times you must have seen those twinkling eyes in the night while crossing a forest those are the eyes of cats which makes you scared. Similarly, these big eyes help them catch their prey and give a good vision of the surrounding. In spite of having such big eyes, they have a low vision as compared to humans. They can't see in complete darkness as we can. Also, they have a limited color vision. Some examples of cats breed with big eyes are Devon rex, British shorthair, elf cat, LA Perm, Singapura etc.

​Size: Now a day’s many cats are being adopted as pets. The main reason behind that is their small size. They are small which makes it comfortable for the owner to take it anywhere they want. Unlike those big dogs, moving them from one place to another is also difficult without their will. But small cat breeds are very light in weight and you can also lift them up and play with them whenever you want. The small cat breeds are widely famous among the humans and some example of small cat breeds are American Curl, Cornish Rex, Devon Rex, Munchkin, Singapura etc.

Hair: Any animal having fur on their body makes it look cute. Similarly, in cats there are a wide variety of cats available in different lengths of their hair some have long hair, some have hair of medium length while others have small hair. You can choose the one you want but you should always keep in mind larger the hair the more you have to maintain you can't just leave your cat in dust. You need to take a good care of your pet from the external factors causing harm to the hair of the cats.

​Good Balance and Reflexes: Cats have a very good balance they have a talent of jumping from any height and balancing their body when they land. The height from which they jump is very high and they jump from there without any fear. Also, they have very good reflexes as compared to the other animals. This is possible because of their light weight and their ability to balance their body even in the air while jumping.

Aggressive Nature: Cats fights are famous throughout the world and most of the time they are being compared to the fights between the women's. The aggressive nature of the cat makes it different from other animals as the cats are an omnivore in nature but as soon as it sees its prey it just finds ways to attack it and eat it. And if you are a cat owner then this thing should always be in your mind that you should never punish your cat as the aggression of the cat can be harmful especially towards the children. So, it's always better to love your pet and to make them realize their mistake without punishing them.

​Another interesting thing about the cats is that they close their eyes while drinking milk. You must be wondering why.
